The Hankook stops 4.5 metres shorter in the wet — a gap that speaks for itself.
On paper, these two summer tyres look like a reasonable contest between a Hankook premium offering and a sporty Yokohama upper-middle contender. The Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 — now succeeded by the Ventus Prime 4 — is a comfort-leaning, safety-focused tyre that has consistently impressed in independent testing. The Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 is positioned as the sportier, more dynamic choice, carrying a full EU wet grip A-label across its entire range. But when these two met in the same test field, the results told a decisively one-sided story — and real-world owner feedback on the Yokohama adds further complexity to its on-paper credentials.
The Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 is the safer, more consistent choice. It won both mutual tests convincingly — finishing 2nd and 5th against fields of 52 and 20 tyres respectively — and its wet braking advantage of 4.5 metres over the Yokohama in direct comparison is a compelling safety argument. It suits drivers who want a trustworthy, well-rounded summer tyre without drama. The Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 has an appealing specification on paper and some owners genuinely rate its dry and wet grip highly, but the high-speed stability concerns raised in user feedback and its poor showing in direct comparative testing mean it is hard to recommend over the Hankook without reservation. If you value consistent, verified real-world performance, the Hankook is the clear pick. The Yokohama suits those who prioritise ride refinement in urban and suburban use and stay within sensible speed limits — but for motorway driving or drivers who demand reassurance in wet conditions, look elsewhere.
